This essay aims to investigate the phenomenon of being able to crush the ​glass ceiling through critical discourse analysis and intersectional theory. The material for the survey consists of the self-help book ​Bortom glastaket (Sedell & Gustafsson 2015). The purpose is to critically examine who is presented as the subject to be able to crush the glass ceiling, what prerequisites are required

Klimatförändringarna på vår jord har länge varit ett aktuellt diskussionsämne, och man har jobbat fram målsättningar för att begränsa klimatpåverkan orsakad av mänskligheten. Byggsektorn är till stor del en bidragande orsak till detta. För att vi skall klara att uppnå bestämmelserna från Parisavtalet, att reducera den globala uppvärmningen till under två grader, kommer det att krävas en del åtgärd

Önskan att ta risk och analysera nyttan är en av de viktigaste aspekterna som kan beaktas i personliga beslut. Senare studier har visat att den egna uppfattningen om tid och personlighetsdrag påverkar uppfattningen av den upplevda nyttan. I denna studie användes ett frågeformulär av 162 frågor. Frågorna delades in i tre grupper: framtida beslutsscenarier, ett personlighetsformulär och ett formulärWillingness to take risk and analyzing the utility are one of the most important aspects that can be considered in personal decisions. Recent studies have shown that that one’s perception of time and personality traits influence on perception of utilities. In this study a questionnaire with 162 questions was used. Questions were divided into three groups: future decision scenarios, a personality i

The main aim with this master’s thesis was to study the possibilities of detecting an event (rat trap going off) by analyzing audio streams from a MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) microphone or movement patterns from a MEMS accelerometer. To achieve this goal, a small, power efficient and cost efficient embedded system was built with the help of a development board, a MEMS accelerometer, a

Syftet med denna uppsats var att beskriva vad klienterna själva upplevde vara verksamt i parterapi och till detta lägga en bild av vilka lärdomar och förändringar i parrelationen terapin ledde till. Analysmetoden var kvalitativ tematisk analys. Semistrukturerade intervjuer gjordes med sex personer som gått i parterapi på en kommunal familjerådgivning. Resultatet utmynnade i fem teman med underkate

Digital platforms disrupt industries through new ways of creating consumer value and in the past decade they have had a significant impact on incumbents' competitive position. However, there is still a lack of research regarding the underlying dynamics of digital platforms and how key variables interlink and affect each other. As such, there is some ambiguity regarding the value creation proce

Bluvisions IoT-system har varit huvudfokus under utredningen av om IoT(Internet of Things) är lönsamt att implementera på framtidens Valmetmaskiner. Från början så skulle projektet avgränsas till pressning, kräppning och upprullning men under examensarbetets start fick Valmet svårt att hitta orsaken till varför en ny komponent hade havererat. Havereringen tros ha haft ett samband med höga vibratioBluvision’s IoT-system has been the focus during the investigation if IoT (internet of things) is something that can be implemented on future Valmet machines. From the beginning the bachelor thesis was restricted to press, creping and turn-up. During the initial phase of the bachelor theses start Valmet had problem finding out why a new component had failed. Therefore, it was more valuable for Val

Syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka möjligheten att presentera en kompositvy där den ena delen av vyn visar bilens omgiving, sett ur ett fågelperspektiv, och den andra visar bilens backkamera. För att undersöka denna möjlighet byggdes två prototyper baserade på två separata implementationer av parkeringskameran. Den första prototypen baseras på Volvo Car Corporations egen version av AndroidIn this thesis two prototypes, based on separate implementations of a Park Assist Camera, was developed. The purpose was to investigate the possibility of presenting a composite view, where the first view shows the surroundings of the car from a bird’s-eye view and the other view shows the rear camera. The first prototype was based on Volvo Car Corporations flavour of Android OS, where the perform

The purpose of this study is to examine the political debate regarding the repeal of the Swedish prohibition against monasteries 1949-1961. The study emphasis is on the Swedish religious freedom bill from 1949 (that proposed the conditional repeal of the monastery prohibition) as well as on two parliamentary debates from 1951 and 1961 where the issue was discussed. As a theoretical framework the e

Det svenska elnätet är i behov av stora investeringar och flexibilitetsåtgärder för att upprätthålla ökad efterfrågan på energi och effekt, samt ökad andel variabel förnybar elproduktion. Ett sådant tillvägagångssätt är det ökade införandet av effekttariffer för småkunder bland svenska nätoperatörer som syftar till att uppmuntra slutkonsumenter att utjämna last. Med batterilagring i hemmet kan konThe Swedish grids are in need of large investments and flexibility measures in order to sustain increased power and energy demand and increased penetration of intermittent renewable electricity production. One such measure is the larger introduction of power tariffs among Swedish network operators for their small customer segment, intended to incentivize end consumers to level out load. With resid

3AbstractThis study primarily aims at identifying whether the Swedish excise tax on certain electronic products have had an effect regarding the chemical content of such products since its implementation in mid-2017. The tax is meant to reduce the presence of dangerous flame retardants in the affected products, that otherwise risk harming the public or the environment. Potential negative effects o

The thesis aims to investigate the role of local lead firms in the transformation of smallholders’ technological capabilities towards sustainable agriculture production through the lens of global value chain governance. The technological capabilities that help smallholders adopt and apply sustainable agriculture practices and comply with sustainability standards are related to production, investme

In recent years, digital fabrication has become powerful tool for architects to process and implement design and construction. However, in some countries, architects lack sufficient support to achieve their intentions in digital fabrication. Since it needs high degree of cooperation with customized production, but from some precedents, we architects are investigating possible ways to combine digit

Better signal strength is required to provide a good signal service to the UE. For this, different methods and techniques are available, one of them is codebook type II precoding. This method has a potential to provide an amount of energy to the user in the required direction more precisely than Codebook type I. Therefore this method will be put to the test, for a given SNR range, by comparing the

The dynamics of molecules and electrons takes place on timescales of femtoseconds and attoseconds, respectively. This requires ultrashort and intense extreme ultraviolet (XUV) pulses to be able to study them. Two sources that can generate intense XUV pulses are free-electron lasers (FELs) based on self amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) and high-order harmonic generation (HHG)driven by intense

Pupils have gotten school meals in Sweden since the late 1800´s. The school meal has of course changed over the years. In the beginning the pupils only got porridge and milk. Since then they serve both meat-, fish- and chicken dishes. In recent years, many schools around the country are more concerned about the environment and therefore started to serve more plant-based diets and less red meat. Re
